Brouton Bay (Template:Langx, bukhta Broutona) is a bay formed within the volcanic caldera of Urataman volcano at the northern end of Simushir Island in the Kuril Islands, Russia.[1]
The bay is named for William Robert Broughton, who surveyed Simushir (then Marikan) in October 1796.[2]
During the Soviet era the Russians were making some efforts to construct a naval base for the Red Banner Pacific Fleet in the north-eastern part of the bay.[3]
